Guadagnino’s latest, “Challengers,” is about a continually changing love triangle involving two besotted men and a sharp, beautiful woman with killer instincts and personal style.
Written by the novelist and playwright Justin Kuritzkes, “Challengers” is fairly straightforward despite its self-consciously tortured narrative timeline.
It tracks three tennis prodigies — friends, lovers and foes — across the years through their triumphs and defeats, some shared.
A rich boy who cosplays as poor (well, at least struggling), Patrick met Art when they were children at a tennis academy.
It’s at that point that they met Tashi, then a fast-rocketing star.
